A new mom learns some makeup tips to help her look bright eyed and fresh

Worn out by newborn twins and a five-year-old, Tanya's current beauty routine includes such luxuries as brushing her hair and teeth. "If I'm lucky I can take a shower," she says. We're giving this sleep-deprived mom a Real-Life Makeover with tips on how to look bright-eyed, no matter how much sleep she got last night. Watch as makeup pro Julie Murray works her magic.




CREATE A CANVAS
First, clear the decks. Clear skin of dirt and oil and get the appearance of smaller pores by using an exfoliating cleanser. Follow-up with a subtle self-tanning moisturizer containing SPF. It's easy to find one for fair/medium skin and one for medium/tan skin. "This is going to help you gradually build your tan over time and give you that healthy glow for the summer," says Julie.

BRIGHT EYES
To look alert and rested, it's all about the eyes. On the eyelids, use a cream-based primer or eyeshadow with silica to absorb oil and prevent creasing. Choose one with a bit of shimmer to make eyes subtly pop. Push a water-resistant gel-based eyeliner into the lash line to make lashes appear fuller. To make eyes appear brighter (especially when you've been up all night), use a peach colored eyeliner on the water line of eyes. Finish with a waterproof mascara.

PEACHY KEEN
Cream blushes in natural hues are easy to blend and lend a natural glow to cheeks. Smile, and apply blush to apples of the cheeks, blending up and out toward your cheekbones with your thumb. "You get a nice healthy glow with some rosy cheeks without looking like you put on tons of makeup," says Julie. For lips, gloss is a way to get a polished look without much effort--prized words for new mom makeup. Choose a long-wearing, moisturizing version.

Tanya's loving her natural, new mom makeup, and Julie's got us convinced we don't need more than five minutes to get gorgeous. Thanks for watching this episode of Real-Life Makeover. See you next time!
